(Note: over time methinks Loop will be far better than Notion simply because of its connection to other MS apps). If you want to see how Loop can be applied in different work contexts, firstly, I’d also be doing Google searches on “Notion” and seeing how people have been using this product as it’s been around for a lot longer. They’re very similar, aren’t they? What’s It All Mean? Look, a video may say it better than me…. “Hey, look! Its like a Wiki but on steroids!” -Me You don’t need all your tabs open to access multiple Microsoft programs to copy and paste elements of those into your working “space/canvas/portal/something” Everything is there connected to each other.

The beauty of these canvases is that you can share them to others (they sit in your OneDrive) they do away with the need for access and privileges to the full Microsoft programs (if your organisation allows that!) and it’s like ‘your brain’. Well, I liken it to being able to build your own working canvas selecting and slotting in ‘components’ of other Microsoft applications into it.

Microsoft Loop is an app that “combines a powerful and flexible canvas with portable components that move freely and stay in sync across applications”. Sometimes marketing people go a tad overboard… That on the outset, seemed to be about better collaboration (in the real world) even though it looked a bit “gimicky” with the bright colours, bubbles fun, and some such. That aside, now that my disdain for all things metaverse, I decided to instead focus on Microsoft Loop. I viewed th e Microsoft Mesh announcement with enough vigour as being told I would need to have my leg amputated. It was first announced at the Ignite Conference last year, but truth be told, I was not in the right frame of mind back then to comprehend this as I was reeling from Zuckerberg’s announcement of the Meta Verse around the same time. I’m about a few months late to the party when it comes to Microsoft Loop (“Think Plan & Create Together” so yesterday I decided to learn about it as part of my self imposed Learning Day. I cannot see the distinct difference between the “Professional Self” vs the “Personal Self” – just be “Yourself”. Our workplaces and our jobs for many of us, simply should allow us – and give us the space to – to be our best selves. More and more the lines are blurring for me around “professional” and “personal development” to more just “development” because over time, I’m seeing that what we choose to learn, to do, to create are really actions that help shape us to be the person we want to BE and who we ARE. How are these tools helping people build better CONNECTIONS, RELATIONSHIPS, COMMUNICATIONS that will help support them in other ways that can be better used and applied to more wider societal aspects?.How do these new products and functions help support the communication, collaboration and community both within and external to their organisation? > the focus over time is how are these changing the person to be less about work and more about them as a PERSON who has PLACE in community and society.How do these new products and functions help support the individual, team or organisation for better work? > the focus over time is that I’m seeing it’s less about work and more about ‘LIFE’.
In particular, the lens I look at them is: They help me take the first step to have a bit of a dabble, just a dabble, and then make some connections to what it means for people. I rely on these people who go above and beyond to share valuable resources and content that help build my own skills and knowledge in what’s coming up. (And that is okay).Īlso, I cannot compete – nor do I want to – with the Microsoft Valued Professionals (MVPs) out there who have access to first release and developer access to new products and functions coming down the line. I’m going to put it out there that for me, I simply can’t keep up with them anymore. So what I have been doing is catching up with all the Microsoft changes and using this quiet time for a bit of workplace learning. As such, it’s always the “calm before the storm”. Things at the beginning of the work year are always a little bit quiet until people get back from holidays and commence projects for the upcoming months.
